Remember the interesting HTC Ville we mentioned earlier this month? Well, a new image of the device popped up that appears to be an official rendering of the device showing its sexy brushed aluminium exterior and wrap-around display. If you ask me, this new picture looks a hell of a lot more promising than the generic one we reported on earlier.

According to Pocketnow, HTC's upcoming little sexpot will measure in at just under 8mm thin and will run Android 4.0 and Sense 4.0 pushed by a 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor. Also expected is an 8MP camera with higher optics quality than found on HTC's current feature phones and is capable of 1080p HD video capture. A few more specs include HSPA+ connectivity, Beats Audio integration, and a 1,650 mAh battery.

The name Ville is thought to be a codename so don't get too attached. The device is expected to make a public appearance in mid-February at Mobile World Congress before beginning to ship in April. Stay tuned as we will let you know as soon as we hear more, this phone looks like it should generate quite a bit of a buzz.

Although currently not a doctor or a scientist, some believe he posseses the knowledge of both. He was a resident of San Diego California for ten years, lived beachside and sometimes wonders why the hell he moved back to Spokane. A multi-talented man, Stacy is a fabricator, an artist, a gear head, a tech junkie and at most, the disciple of Casanova. Growing up, he was always enthralled with electronics, gadgets and gizmos. Throughout his life he has had one, if not two, of every cool and new electronic device available. He began his smartphone experience with the original iPhone. After realizing it was more like theirPhone, he decided he wanted the ability to customize, so Stacy moved to the OG Droid and has been a loyal Android fanatic ever since. Moving through all of the top tier Verizon phones, he recently retired his Droid Charge in favor of the Galaxy Nexus, only to wonder what great device Samsung will come out with next. Stacy is a busy new homeowner in where he lives with his beautiful girlfriend and two dogs.
